I became a cna in January but I just got my first job a month ago and I am feeling the same way ! However I do notice that the better I get the more I like my days. I think we just need time to adjust. I'm giving myself 6months and if I'm still uncomfortable then I'm just going to find something else . I also worked at a grocery store before becoming a cna so if I am not feeling after 6months then I'm just going to go back to that :)

Thanks for your responses ! It made me feel a lot better. I can't do other shifts because I got to school at night. I'm a nursing major. My dream has always been to be a school nurse ☺

Thanks for responding ! I work the 7-3 shift (:

Hey everyone! I just started my cna job on June 6 and so far I feel like I'm not very good at it. I have 2 residents who have very specific routines and for some reason they haven't stuck in my head ! I always forget a step on their routine and they get angry. I always feel like I'm going slower than my coworkers. My coworkers are very helpful and very nice but I still feel bad asking them for help all the time. I feel anxious and depressed before going to work and even on my days off.I'm starting to think this job just isn't for me. I want to at least do 6 months. How long does it take to have better time management? How long does it take to memorize residents routines? Any time saving tips and tricks are more than welcome?
